[Verse 1]Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are callingFrom glen to glen and down the mountain sideThe summer's gone and all the flowers are falling'Tis you, 'this you must go and I must bye[Verse 2]But come ye back when summer's in the meadowOr when the valley's hushed and white with snow'Tis I'll be here in sunshine or in shadowOh Danny boy, oh Danny boy I love you so[Verse 3]And when you come and all the roses are dyingIf I am dead, as dead I well may beYou'll come here and find the place where I am lyingAnd kneel and say an "Ave" there for me[Verse 4]And I shall hear, though soft you tread above meAnd all my grave will warmer, sweeter beFor you will bend and tell me that you love meAnd I shall sleep in peace until you come to me
